According to the FAN’s D-Mac, who was sitting in the crowd right in front of the most significant event of the Broncos’ first training camp session, running back Knowshon Moreno had caught a screen pass, cut, and without contact, went down in pain with an injured right leg.

According to Denver Post reporter Shemar Woods, Moreno was carted off the field[1]. As he reached the doors leading into the Broncos’ locker room, Moreno had to be helped out of the cart, then assisted by two medical personnel as he limped into the locker room.

Broncos coach Josh McDaniels did not elaborate details on Moreno’s injury in his post-practice press gathering, in part because the team does not yet know the full extent of the injury.

A few minutes after Moreno’s injury, veteran backup Correll Buckhalter walked off the field with an apparent hamstring injury. All this less than two days after the Broncos traded away veteran running back J.J. Arrington to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for special teams standout Joe Mays.

The Broncos’ top running backs for the next week or so are Bruce Hall, who spent his first two seasons with Buffalo, where his coach, Eric Studesville, is now the Broncos’ running back; Lance Ball, who finished last season on the Broncos’ practice squad, and Kolby Smith, who was claimed off waivers from Kansas City in mid-June.
